Lol, I think what contributes to your situation is that a lot of ColdFusion "hosting" happens in-house or on people's own server. That's obviously the chicken/egg problem as people go for their own box because they don't know there is hosting in the first place.
Maybe it'd be a good idea to push the idea (and options) of CF hosting to user groups, i.e. start a site or a simple public google doc or something listing all the hosters in ANZ that offer CF and compare plans etc. Cheers Kai On 26/05/2010, at 7:42 PM, Kym Kovan wrote: > On 26/05/2010 17:04, Chris Velevitch wrote: >> On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 16:58, Dale Fraser<d...@fraser.id.au> wrote: >>> Where was CEBit? >> >> Sydney. > > And I never got there even though I wanted to, too busy :-( > > The fact that we are busy tells me that CF is alive and well in Oz, or our > segment of it at least but I also am aware that our segment is not everything. > > Fiona and I got a bit of a surprise at WebDU, very few people had heard of > us, very few indeed.
